somebody was reading this last night on one of my 3 bloggers

I'm crying now, I just reread what you were reading last night, not the piece below

but another one. It reminds me of my past and my hopes then

and the Tinnitus and shoulder pain is horrible right now

so the piece below I've brought back again

China has 2 new Bishops, not one but two

Like buses turning up together

I was at the Catholic cathedral in Shanghai long ago

I lit a candle there

God is for Everyone

I'm boring with talk of pain

my dreams are more like bucket lists

I've hooked up my PC to my Tribit speaker behind me

Taylor Swift is singing

I'll. go back. to bed in a bit, for another session of sleep

I was up at 3 am with Tinnitus and the cat

it was so cold that the cat came in from the cold

after 30mins

i may have said yet another Rosary before going back to bed

my rubic cube sleeping pattern

the Neem   has not kicked in yet

I may scream in pain

BUT

THANK YOU SINGAPORE for passing by this site

and the 2 others

I do not know why, perhaps I'm so attractive to you

if you like my face,  the rest of me would make

you puke

read piece below for details again

And yes in this time of Wars, Pray for Peace

any prayers will do

if we spent 10% of the War budget on Peace

we'd all be living in a much better world

I believe what Mary said, so stay positive

and Moscow I hope you all enjoy my daily messages

82 downloads of my book in one night recently 

the Russian Translation

of The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker

so I'm corrupting you

to Love Thy Neighbours

and finally he's the repost

14th June 2023

 well had my BT today, hoping I'll stick at 25 for GFR

I  don't fancy being plugged in 3 times a week for Dialysis

If my numbers drop then that could become a fact of life

To be. avoided like the Plague

They have to put a tube in your body, or arm

I look like the elephant man already with my hernia

and scars on my chest and legs

Got appointments for my Tinnitus too

Tinnitus is the worst thing in my life ever

and i've had many bad things

and no, not my writing

do you want a slap, or should I kiss you for your cheek

The Cold, The Heat, The Wind, Tones can trigger it even higher

It brings tears t my eyes and you have to get out of bed early

TO avoid being a sitting target

I can take 3 hours for it to come down from gale force 10

when I awake in the morning. after my 2 hour slots of allowed sleep

I wake up every 2 hours, that's what my body does to me

So that's why you get these instead of story stories nowadays

But Singapore girl, now you are reaching the end of my page

You can visit and be my scribe

or just leave the stage to read even more of my stories

A little bit of Peace as you read a piece of me

A little bit of Peace as you read a piece of me

well today my Tinnitus continues to try and kill me

full on for hours, like being in a furnace,  or burning in Hell

while I watched TV and had food, my Tinnitus calmed

But but left shoulder pain kicked off, my daily merry go round of pain

However, you have been downloading The Arabic and for Neighbours Translations

even an ipod being used to read me

I'd just listen to music, but you decided to download/read me, maybe

as my hernia at the top of my chest hurts too, or do I sound like a big baby

YOU try it for a day, I dare you, walk in my shoes, and high heels and evening dress

except in Florida, when will Americans just GROW UP, Panto is King in UK

Meanwhile my smaller daughter continues her Anthropology and French

back in the swing of things second year at University, and. yes I miss her already

I missed my big daughters Graduation, as my pain attacks and NOISE in my head

is so random, so my brother and sister went in my place

Bio-Chemistry was that one

So it makes me happy seeing you all read me, I will write more full stories eventually

These are just Chats, not story stories,as I need a straight hour, not wearing a dress, a joke for Florida

so I can think and put it all. down

Sincerely I thank Jeff Bezos  for Music Unlimited as I listen constantly, I have it in my bed too

to soothe the savage beast, the Tinnitus in my head/bed and everywhere I am too

though perhaps if I did dress in a dress it might relax the noise in my head, but not in Florida

Perhaps I should go to Lourdes and then my Tinnitus might go away

I have taken to wearing a beret recently, the one from Amazon. 

was no good, but they sorted it

Then I found one that fitted from a shop here in Birmingham

you can Google for yourself

My Tinnitus is inflamed by COLD, so both Wind and Cold, affect me badly

I'm not making this up, do you think I want to be up at 4am talking to the cat

I'd rather be asleep, dreaming of wearing a dress and high heels, but not in Florida

SEE I've even taught you about a running gag, that's spikes and grass, or maybe not in Florida

Maybe as you read me you dream of me, as you can see the photos attached

I'd love to have his 4 sons, Mathew Mark Luke and John

but then you think again, he'd never move to Florida

You'd all have to move to Birmingham for my Cobwebs of Love

and no, not a metaphor

Cobwebs of Love is one of my 4600+ pieces you can seek and find it

but don't trip over that evening dress and high heels at the bottom of my bed

and they are not from Florida, and they are not mine

and that red beret  at the bottom. of my duvet

am I going to be invaded

Surrender

to a woman,  always




my Lawrence of Arabia look


it's hard to shave while riding a camel

I've updated this 18th March 2022 I'm Michael Casey from Birmingham England, the fat silver haired writer in shades. Beware of Others with the EXACT SAME NAME, they are not me, and would not want to be me ... use Google UK to find me, otherwise Posh Americans pop up I've done loads of writing, about 2,000,000 Words worth over 34years now But before I started to write, I LISTENED to BBC Radio 4 for 20 years, from the age of 10 or younger Frank Brown our lodger, went back to County Tyrone and he gifted us his Bush Radio. He'd be nearly 100 now if he is still alive, so say a prayer for him 54 years in love with words, and I still look so dashing. I have a picture in the attic, just like Dorian Gray I've also had an interest in Politics for 54 years with my dad heckling the tv and Politicians. I almost immediately had a hit, a play called Shoplife was accepted but not finally produced by a Theatre. The Kenneth More Theatre, so thank them for sparing you all. This was back in 1989 yes, 30 years plus ago, the play was written in 1988. So since then I'm more than good enough, as a writer. Anything else..... I also ignore those who just cannot write, pick your own candidate I tend to write Comedy as I'd rather make you laugh than cry I have written over 2000 short pieces of writing, yes 2000 " (c) by Michael Casey" If you include "chats" 3700 samples, all told, the chats do NOT go into my books when I compile them. My first book ,a full length comedy/drama is The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker You can read translations of it here on this site Up to 20 different languages/translations have been read on the same day via this site, here on Wordpress look fo Translations Galore page, and more And in over 90 Countries world wide too so you have no excuse, find your own language and read The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker or Quick Stories or any other of the books in Translation on my Wordpress This proves to me that the humour does travel I have readers in over 100 countries now, just to repeat myself From Nepal to American Samoa and all places North South East and West Or its just a hit man on the run, or whatever Unknown Region Means It may also mean that only non English Speakers like my stuff Coverage but lacking penetration as marketing folks might say I did get 21,000 readers in 3 weeks for the Polish version of In Search of an Indian Princess. which is basically the final 3 chapters of The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker all by word of mouth. And 50,000 plus in Christmas week 2021 If you add up all the downloads from my Wordpress + 13,000 when somebody stole the file. I have had more copies than Boris Johnson's Churchill book distributed. Maybe 40,000 copies . Not made a penny from it, free downloads in multiple languages. Reverse Logic, if the world knows me, eventually somebody will pay me But in reality I'll be dead first, and then just 2 pennies to pay the ferryman is enough I've cut the Plaudits, you can read/decide for yourself As for my life, I was born in the shadow of a Brewery, I was a computer operator for a market research company into alcohol sales, 21 years altogether, StatsMR Call centre guy, like everybody once in their life I was also a Trainee Betting Shop Manager I was a concierge and 10 other roles at Crowne Plaza NEC Birmingham for 3 years. Spent 3 years at Pinsent Masons Law firm in Birmingham I even hid a copy of my comic novel "BBU" in the Law Library at Pinsent Masons, well just for a day.. I did a few other jobs too, working life in reverse so to speak and I was an Esol English teacher in an Islamic school, for a year, I knew I could teach. I got Excellent, Excellent and Exemplary on the external assessment, yes really And I asked them to pray for me at least once a day beside which I've had a Shanghai connection for 20 years now, including 2 bilingual daughters and being a hausfrau a long time too, I'm a great dad, as I've had lots of time with my daughters I can always make somebody talk or laugh I believe my short stories could be used to teach English, just package them up correctly or App them Or a Tale a Day from Michael, a story telling App What else, I was brawn and brains, I used to be as strong as an Ox, now I just smell like one We have a cat called Totoro, my daughters wanted a pet I said they could have a dog if I died , or a cat if I had a heart attack. A few weeks after that in Jan 2015 I had an Unplanned Quadruple Heart Bypass , it was supposed to be a triple but it ended up a Quadruple, 33% extra free so to speak. Now with an add on Hernia, the size of your fist, pushing through my bypass scar, it hurts when I laugh, so don't make me laugh I also have arthritis and other hindrances that hobble my body and give me pain galore. But my mind is free, though having read my stories you may wish I didn't bother But I'll ignore you, and carry on regardless. I do get heckled by my own Tinnitus these past 3 years+, so I have music on all night long to drown it out. I sleep with Miley, Taylor, Eric Clapton and Will Young, maybe I should buy a bigger bed, or just get a better mattress. Tinnitus is a curse, just trust me I know, each day I wake up, Tinnitus SCREAMS at me for a full hour till it calms down That's the end of the tidy version of my life To finish here's the list of my 20 books, so far:- 1.The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker 2.Shoplife 3.Essays and Plays 4.Blogs 2011 5.300 and Not OUT 6.Shorts 2013 7.More Shorts 2014 8.Quick Stories 9.Still Alive 2015 10.Undiscovered Words 2016 11.Still Smiling 2017 12.Altogether Now 13.New Horizons 14.14 Up 15.15 Down 16.Sweet Sixteen 17. 17 Again 18. 18 New Views 19. The Final Cut of the 19th Hole 20. 2020 Words 21. 21 Door Keys, key to the door 21 on Bingo, hence title, 53,000 words so far I write bullet point stuff mainly now as Tinnitus stops me from getting in the zone to write, story stories. (c) by Michael Casey stuff though my bullet points are better than some "writers" discuss, miaow. That's why I dream of a speed typist, so I could dictate from the sofa https://www.amazon.co.uk/Michael-Casey/e/B00571G0YC to buy ebooks Loads of Korean and Arabic translations downloaded from my Wordpress, 1000s of them Quick Stories in Korean is a big hit. Maybe Kim in North Korea should read my books, instead of wasting his countries resources on what? Just keeping one person in power, him? Instead of joining the real world and opening a string on golf courses. That way we could get rid of Trump too. Into the sunset, as they play golf. Tears for a Butcher will be the sequel to BBU, and it too will be 600pages, however I really need a speed typist to put it down, while I sit and dictate like Barbara Cartland, and hopefully my speed typist would be impressed. we'd marry have half Korean kids, and form a Kpop band with our 4 new kids, with me as manager. And yes this is more for my bucket list, as Tinnitus keeps me awake too much, 6 months of not sleeping till dawn is really killing me Michael Casey aka the fat silver haired writer in shades from Birmingham England https://2.gravatar.com/avatar/efda2dca0de5b9269191b7c8b0102473?s=400&d=mm
